1 . Let’s say goodbye to the busy work and enjoy a great barbecue (烧烤) with our family! A barbecue outside is great fun. On the activity, you can enjoy delicious food and wonderful family life!
A barbecue is cooking meat with grill (烧烤架). People often cut meat into pieces and cook meat on the grill for some minutes. Please keep the grill between 225 and 250 degrees. If you don’t like meat you can also get some vegetables or other food. At the same time, drinks and fruit-can make your barbecue more wonderful. Usually, lawns (草坪) near a river or mountains are the best places for a barbecue. Finally (最后), I’d like to tell you: keep little children away from the hot grill! Remember all these ideas and you can have a good barbecue.
